Tasting Notes
Vinous 89.5
The 2020 Vieux Château Mazerat offers blackberry and cedar scents on the nose, quite classic in style. The palate is medium-bodied with granular tannins and pointed acidity, becoming more tertiary with an off-dry finish. Give this a couple of years in bottle, and it may meet my expectations out of barrel. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting.
Anticipated maturity: 2026-2038
